As usual the people who don't have it are poo-pooing it. Anyone who tries to act like this howardite fall is lame, one of a handful ever and first one ever where small perfect complete oriented stones are available to all. Anyone pretending this magnificent fall is anything less is just delusional, uneducated, or jealous.
